At the risk of sounding ignorant, what's the purpose and benefit of a steering dampner?

A damper keeps the bars straight and keeps them from shaking at high speeds. It helps you track straighter over the whoops. If you ride/race in the woods it keeps the bars from being ripped out of your hands when you hit a root or a rock. Like YFZ said it helps with arm pump. If you ever rode with one you would never ride without one. One of the best mods for the price.

I heard it will be around the price of a Precision, in the area of $500.
